This bug is still present in 10.04.2. My cronjobs as root were failing
with Authentication failure messages in /var/log/syslog. I had use
the same edit of /etc/shadow mentioned earlier in this post to fix the
problem.

I would strongly suggest using 'sudo vipw -s' instead of directly
editing /etc/shadow. It's a wrapper that makes sure you don't
accidentally introduce syntax errors and break your whole system.

The importants of this bug has been set to high and the number of
duplicates is staty growing.
A workaround for those who are affected:
$ sudo vim /etc/shadow
change the line:
root:!:13919:0:9:7::1:
to
root:!:13919:0:9:7:::
You have to redo this everytime you use 'passwd -l $USER'

You received this bug notification because
the original intention of upstream has been to prevent ssh access where
the user has been locked.
Maybe a solution is to advance the patch to expire the account only if
$USER != root
That way the original intention is preserved without this somewhat
regression.

Seems to me that chfn should not be trying to reauthenticate the calling
user. Authentication is handled by the login program, so it should not
also be done by chfn.
A user that is unable to login for any reason ( could also just not be
allowed on this tty or something ) should still be able to
Forgot to mention: The error is _not_ there when I unlock the root
account with 'sudo passwd root'. chfn fails only when root is locked via
'passwd -l root'.

I have the same error, when trying to use chfn. This also has the neat
effect, that it breaks installation of mysql-server, as the pre-install
script fails.
This is the command, which fails during the mysql-server pre-installation
script:
$ sudo /usr/bin/chfn -f 'MySQL Server' mysql

I don't think there is a bug. This looks like a configuration issue.
When it is called, chfn authenticates the calling user (root), and then
check if the calling user's is valid.
Being root is sufficient to get authenticated (pam_rootok is loaded in
/etc/pam.d/chfn), but
Yes, this is an configuration issue. By default Ubuntu's root account is
disabled and chfn should surely handle this configuration and just work.
But it does not.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo tells to execute 'passwd -l
root' to re-disable the root account. As I understand it this
Me too. I have this problem with adduser from the time when I enabled the root
user (sudo passwd root) and then disabled it (sudo passwd -l root).
